Mid Bunk Bed

2ft 6 mid sleeper cabin bed bunk beds have an elevated sleeping area that has storage space underneath or a desk. They're popular for children up to pre-teens. They also have more versatility than loft beds, as they can be made into two separate singles.

Some are designed with a ladder as well as small steps that lead to the top bunk bed. They are also very durable.

Safety

Bunk beds can be dangerous especially for children. Every year thousands of children are hospitalized for injuries resulting from the use of loft beds and bunk beds. The majority of these injuries are not serious. The most common incidents involving bunk beds occur when children play around or on their beds, and a significant proportion of these involve falling off the top bunk. There are many ways you can help minimize this risk and keep your kids safe during the night.

It is important to choose a bunk bed that is in compliance with all safety standards. This includes having guardrails that are at least 3.5 inches on both sides of the mattress and are properly fixed to prevent children from falling off. The upper guardrails must be at a minimum of five inches higher than the mattress to protect against falls. Similarly, the ladder should be secure and firmly attached to the bunk bed frame. The ladder steps should also be made of sturdy materials with wide, secure treads to prevent sliding. It is also important to educate children on proper bunk bed use starting from the first day. This should include not playing vigorously on or around the beds, only sleeping in them and keeping their belongings and bodies in the guardrails at all times.

Other simple measures that can significantly reduce the risk of bed accidents include ensuring the ladder isn't being used as a climbing frame and no belts or ropes are attached to the beds; these could become strangulation hazards. To reduce the risk of bumping against ceiling fans or light fixtures when climbing the ladder, you should put the ladder away from them. Also, you should periodically examine the bunk bed for signs of wear and tear, especially any squeaks which could indicate loose or compromised components that could affect stability or safety.

Be wary of DIY bunk bed kits, because they may not be compliant with the most recent safety standards. Always check the guidelines of the manufacturer when purchasing a new bunk bed and ask about any additional safety features they might offer.

Space

A mid-bunk wooden midi bed is lower in height than the loft bed or high sleeper. This means that the space beneath can be used to store things or even as a bed. This is ideal for smaller spaces or for children who require extra sleeping or study space.

Most of the time, there is room for a desk or bookcase built into the side of the bed ideal for homework and storage. Some models come with an incredibly low-height wardrobe, which is ideal for younger kids' clothes, while others have cubbies for toys, books and bits and pieces.

The most comfortable mid bunk beds will also have an escalator that leads to the sleeping loft and eliminates the need for ladders, making it easier for kids to climb in and out of bed. Some beds in the middle have a peek-aboo window that adds an element of fun to the room.

Some models also come with the option of a pull-out sofa or futon, which creates a comfortable lounge area perfect for movie nights with your family and socializing. Some models have a flip-down workstation, which is ideal for kids who struggle to concentrate on their schoolwork or homework.

While a mid bunk bed is a great choice for many families, there are some children who may struggle with the higher sleeping position or finding the ladders/steps daunting.
